First, I want to apologize for not being able to keep up with my blog as much as I would like, or to share as much in public as I would prefer. The reasons are twofold. We’ve been very busy at Kyield, and testing has increasingly confirmed that while competitors in our industry invest heavily in web information (CI), most customers do not; at least for enterprise-wide systems like Kyield. So I have regrettably pulled back on detailed public writing, or rather– have replaced with more formal papers and presentations with customers.

A good example of our efforts is the new report below, which is a hybrid of an academic paper with citations supporting our claims and a detailed brochure for senior managers in pharmaceuticals, biotech, and healthcare–particularly those pursuing personalized medicine and significant improvement in operational efficiency:

The paper highlights the challenges facing the industry with considerable detail on how Kyield is unique in the world with respect to ability to overcome these challenges. Essentially, in order to overcome systemic challenges it requires a systemic solution, and in terms of distributed organizations it requires a very particular type of systemic solution that can address each of the challenges. Due to the high values involved, the result is that Kyield may well be the best investment option in the world today for life science executives.

For those who would prefer more frequent updates, the best methods to track either Kyield or my activity are as follows:

Observing lives lost and trauma from preventable tragedies is among the most frustrating experiences of my career. However, whatever frustration we feel pales in comparison to the pain victims and their family members experience. Prevention of human-caused catastrophes has long been a top priority of our R&D. We have a desire and an obligation to […]

It is truly an honor to share our recent announcement and welcome Vice Admiral Phil Wisecup USN (Ret.) to our board of directors. Phil joins Dr. Robert Neilson who is now special advisor to the board. As their bios only partially reflect, Phil and Rob are exceptional additions to Kyield’s leadership. Vice-Admiral James P. “Phil” Wisecup (Ret.) brings 40 […] […]

From theorem to market through multiple valleys of death and beyond This is a personal story about our real-world experience, which contains little resemblance to most of what is written about entrepreneurism and technology commercialization. While our journey has been longer than most, scientific commercialization (aka deep tech) typically requires two de […]

Even though some companies may seem well positioned, the fundamental economic and business environment is rapidly changing. To the best of my awareness, survival from this point forward will essentially require a strong AI OS for the super majority of organizations.

I wanted to share a general pattern that is negatively impacting organizations in part due to the compounding effect it has on the broader economy. Essentially this can be reduced to misapplying the company’s playbook in dealing with advanced technology (AI systems).

Every year, natural catastrophes (nat cat) are highly visible events that cause major damage across the world. In 2016 the cost of nat cats were estimated to be $175 billion, $50 billion of which were covered by insurance, reflecting severe financial losses for impacted areas.[i] The total cost of natural catastrophes since 2000 was approximately […]

The focus should be maximize benefits from our inventions, engineered systems and technologies to recreate a sustainable competitive advantage. One benefit of lagging behind other countries in infrastructure is that much progress has been made in recent years. Future projects can be embedded with hardware that enable intelligent networks, which can then be m […]

Learn about the background of Kyield and the multi-disciplinary science involved with AI systems, with a particular focus on AI augmentation for knowledge work and how to achieve a continuously adaptive learning organization (CALO).

The photo above represents a learning opportunity especially relating to survival and adaptation. Recently completed by my wife Betsy[i], the artwork was inspired by our visit to the Acoma Pueblo a few months ago, which is one of the oldest continuously inhabited communities in North America. Ancestors of current residents have lived on top of a 360-foot tal […]
